Reasoning of the Law

Reasoning of the Law -- analysis of the thinking process and logic used by your lawyer

Well to give a full analysis of the thinking process and logic used by my lawyer I would probably need to be in their head. Not having the ability to do this I will give my best opinion on how they came up with the answers that they did. “Intellectual property refers to products of the human intellect that have commercial value and that receive legal protection.” (Patent, Copyright & Trademark An Intellectual Property Desk Reference, 11th Edition, Page 4.) Like most people we make decisions and answer questions based on what we know. All lawyers are people or at least they appear that way so it only stands to reason that they would look back upon their experiences and knowledge gained as they studied law practices in college. Anyone who studies law in school will study a broad spectrum of law before they finally decide what if anything they wish to specialize in. The lawyer I spoke with is not an intellectual law lawyer so I believe he gave his answers to the best of his knowledge relating it to the things in which he knows to be true. “Intellectual property law, along with court decisions and regulations, establish rules for the following activities:
• Selling or licensing of intellectual property
• Resolving disputes between companies making or selling similar intellectual property products and services, and
• The registration and administration of intellectual property.”
(Patent, Copyright & Trademark An Intellectual Property Desk Reference, 11th Edition, Page 5.)
This is why I think that my lawyer made good sounds judgments for his answers, because of the fact that most all law practices are done and studied the same way so that even though he is not an intellectual property law lawyer he can still look at the questions and relate them to something in his on field of expertise.
